• Permazen: Language-natural persistence to KV stores

  While this may work for greenfield applications, I don't see this working well for preexisting schemas. From their getting started page: "Database fields are automatically created for any abstract getter methods", which definitely scares me away since they seem to be relying on automatic field type conversions. I prefer to manage my schemas when I can and do type and DAO conversions via mapper classes in the very... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Permazen: Language-natural persistence to KV stores

  Someone else mentioned jOOQ, but personally I also rather enjoyed JDBI3: https://jdbi.org/#_introduction_to_jdbi_3 It addresses the issues with using JDBC directly (not nice ergonomics), while still letting you work with SQL directly without too many abstractions in the middle. In combination with Dropwizard, it was pretty pleasant: https://www.dropwizard.io/en/stable/manual/jdbi3.html Other than that, I actually... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Is ORM still an anti-pattern?

  > I've been doing ORM on Java since Hibernate was new, and it has always sucked. Have you ever looked at something like myBatis? In particular, the XML mappers: https://mybatis.org/mybatis-3/dynamic-sql.html Looking back, I actually quite liked it - you had conditionals and ability to build queries dynamically (including snippets, doing loops etc.), while still writing mostly SQL with a bit of XML DSL around it,... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Sketch of a Post-ORM

  I found JDBi[1] to be a really nice balance between ORM and raw SQL. It gives me the flexibility I need but takes care of a lot of the boilerplate. It's almost like a third category. 1. http://jdbi.org. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Can someone tell me a good resource to learn and practice JDBC in java?

  You could use something like jdbi or mybatis. It's not as ugly as raw jdbc and easier to use without all of the gunk from an ORM like hibernate. Source: about 1 year ago

Grails mentions (5)

• RIFE2 web framework under development

  And frameworks like Grails build conventions and helpers on top of Spring. Source: over 1 year ago

• Web app in Java with Template Engine

  I don't have any direct experience and am only suggesting it because you mentioned RoR...But Grails (https://grails.org/) is basically the JVM version of RoR (Groovy on Rails -> Grails). Source: over 1 year ago

• Libraries other than Spring Boot for creating web APIs

  Grails - Spring under the hood. Much less boilerplate. Opinionated, which helps keep things consistent. Uses Spring-Security plugin for authentication. Source: almost 2 years ago

• "get-it-done" MVC web framework like Django in Java?

  Also, Grails, which a Rails like framework build on Groovy, a JVM scripting language. Source: over 2 years ago

• How to Build Java Applications Today: April 5, 2021

  Any JVM language to the rescue here? There’s one, but it’s not the one you’re thinking about. In a sign that this index may not accurately reflect our project reality, Groovy saw a meteoric rise of 0.86% to 1.04% last year! That was good for place 17. Yep, Groovy! Are people writing Gradle plugins in Groovy? Or is Grails having a resurgence? I’m as baffled as you are. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago
